What is the purpose of Unit impact safety awards?

The purpose of Unit impact safety awards is fundamentally centered on supporting mission readiness through risk reduction. These awards are designed to acknowledge and highlight efforts that contribute significantly to safety within the unit. By recognizing those who have actively worked to identify and mitigate risks, the awards create an incentive for all members to prioritize safety, ultimately enhancing the overall effectiveness and readiness of the unit.

Fostering a culture of safety not only protects the individuals within the unit but also ensures that the unit can accomplish its missions without interruptions caused by accidents or injuries. By emphasizing risk reduction, these awards play a critical role in improving operational performance and maintaining the integrity of the unit's objectives.
